Blue sky, a good place for thinking, about marketing, the airline business, life.

 

The entrepreneurial urge arrived early: Rob sold plastic scale models to Northwest Airlines pilots and stewardesses in the late 1960s; it was more rewarding than working at a fast-food joint.

Building on decades of marketing know-how and a broad range of experience, AirLearn delivers insights and actionable counsel in the following areas:

 

§   Overall marketing diagnostics, including marketing audits

§   Advertising and brand development, including media advertising, direct marketing, and promotion

§   Market research

§   Internal and external communications strategy

§   Network and alliance development and implementation

§   Product design and delivery

§   Service quality improvement

§   CRM and loyalty programs

§   Sales and distribution strategy

§   Pricing and revenue-management innovation

Although most engagements are in or related to aviation and travel, AirLearn’s “fresh set of eyes” has added value in completely unrelated sectors.  For example, a marketing analytics company recently asked Rob to help strategize international market expansion.
